A CAPPELLA BY: Dylan Cromer
About Me - Avid Music Junkie - Play a few different Instruments - I sing
Research • History • -Started in early Christianity • - Churches use these in choirs • How to form this kind of group • What kind of music works best • What vocals would be required • How to match pitch and harmonize • How to make the group sound as one
FACILITATOR • Aaron Hodges • He is in charge of music worship at church • He went to college for music and composition • Taught me how to compose the music we did and how to arrange it • After hearing my story with my first facilitator, he immediately was willing to help • He was a great joy to be around learn from
WHAT A CAPPELLA GROUP -Form an all vocal a cappella group - Perform a mini concert
WHY • Musical groups that are accompanied by instruments can rely on the instruments for proper key and pitch • A Cappella groups rely solely on the singers and their voices • I wanted to take on the task of putting a group together to sing only
HOW • Find my singers • - Soprano • - Alto • - Tenor • - Bass • Schedule Practice • Schedule Performance
Anna: Alto Corbin: Bass
POMPEII- Bastille COUNTING STARS- OneRepublic
Process I was conducting and playing to give them their pitch
Me on the piano so the group could match pitches for their parts

CHALLENGES • My biggest issues were getting people to be reliable • My first facilitator stopped for a month before I decided to get a new one • Time Management • Also learning to read music again
WHAT I LEARNED • I learned how to read music again • I also learned how to compose music and write in my own pieces
Pursue It? • No • It was something I had to rely on too many people • However I’ll probably do something with music
What I Think Of Senior Project • Great to learn if I wanted to do this as my future • Fun • I enjoyed the challenge
